Fluolion® Integra White & Blue

Fluolion^® Integra White

Description
Specially stabilised PTFE sheet material, mechanically treated to improve muli-directional strength, combat creep and improve resilience for flange jointing duties. It was previously designated Fluolion^® Integra.

Typical applications
Flanged joints on plant that handle extremely aggressive fluid media. Also where hygiene is top priority - such as in the pharmaceutical, food and electronics industries.

Prime features

• Highly recommended for duties with strong acids and oxidising agents at elevated temperatures and all concentrations.
• Outstanding resistance to a very wide range of chemical media.
• Inherently clean, non-toxic and non-tainting.
• Can be used at cryogenic temperatures.
• Displays compressibility and recovery characteristics close to those of many non-asbestos fibre jointings.

Specifications

• Complies with requirements of FDA Regulations for food use
• Complies with USP 25, Class V, classification of plastics for pharmaceutical service.

How supplied
Precision cut gaskets to any shape, size and quantity. In sheets 1.5m x 1.5m. Thicknesses: 0.75mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm. Please note that 3.0mm is also available but is not recommended.

Fluolion^® Integra Blue

Description
General purpose PTFE-based sheet jointing that is specially stabilised and mechanically treated to improve multi-directional strength, combat creep and improve resilience for flange jointing duties.

Typical applications
Flanged joints on plant that handles aggressive fluid media, especially where hygiene is top priority - such as in the pharmaceutical, food and electronic industries. Fluolion^® Integra Blue is especially suited to applications with weak or lightly loaded flanges, in addition to standard flange duties.

Prime features

• Highly recommended for duties with caustic alkalis and strong acids, at elevated temperatures and moderate concentrations.
• High compressibility for effective sealing on lightly loaded flanges.
• Outstanding resistance to a very wide range of chemical media.
• Inherently clean, non-toxic and non-tainting.
• Can be used at cryogenic temperatures.

Specifications

• Complies with requirements of FDA Regulations for food use.
